Same guy holds both. The run is from the bridge on the tennessee side to the state line. 10.6 miles I think it is.
Mmmm...i've been wanting a GPS data logger to run it with: http://www.trackmateracing.com/ End result would be a 3D model of the run with speed and braking shown And of course official recorded times

I prefer night runs anyways: it's much more calm, no traffic, and with a relatively loud car you don't have to worry about animals...it's normally only you and the sound of your exhaust echoing off the rock walls
